Man thanked for breaking Kaizer Chiefs' curse

In the video, posted by @soshvlogs, the man can be seen placing a Kaizer Chiefs T-shirt on the floor before proceeding to whip it repeatedly with a wire as though cleansing it of misfortune. The exaggerated act was accompanied by commentary, adding to the comedic appeal of the moment.

The video quickly spread across social media platforms, with fans jokingly praising the man for finally breaking the curse that many believe has plagued the iconic club.
